MPW Macro Toolbar FAQs

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q: What exactly am I paying for?

A: When you buy the toolbar, you're paying for the macros we create, including the drum macros, scale/chord macros macros, the Strum macro, the Quantize macros, the macros for adding plug-ins and many more (over 450 customizable macros in total). You also get plug-in presets, a Studio One Recording preset, all macros individually so you can customize them (and two Hi-Res MPW wallpapers: not included yet, free update included).

If you are very familiar with the macros in PreSonus Studio One, you could recreate it yourself. However, if you don't want to deal with it and don't feel like spending several weeks developing it, then this is for you. Just download, install and start producing without limits.

Q: What kind of producers are these toolbars suitable for?

A: The MPW Macro Toolbars "All Edition " contains 4 different macro toolbars that fit perfectly into any workflow. The toolbars support you in every phase of music making: beat making, recording, mixing and even mastering.

If you don't want to buy the whole package, then you can buy the Producer Edition (Beat Making + Recording Toolbar) and the Engineer Edition (Mixing + Mastering Toolbar) can also be purchased separately.

No matter whether you are a beginner, advanced or professional, the MPW toolbars for Studio One make every workflow even better.

We've built over 250 macros from scratch and put a total of over 450 macros into 4 easy-to-use toolbars.
